Oz Farm & Retreat Center Wedding on the Mendocino Coast

Natalie and Andrew’s Mendocino coast wedding was a dreamy amalgamation of color, nature, and sequins. Starting with Natalie’s epic full length silver sequin dress!! Which was really just an accent piece for all the stunning jewelry and silver floral sculptures she made by hand in the preceding months. She joked about the day being a wedding-turned-art-show, but the sculptures were also gifts of appreciation for all the guests. (No small feat!)

Oz Farm is an off-the-grid, serene retreat center and holistic community that’s tucked into a quiet valley near the coast. The poppies, wildflowers, and gardens were lush and in late-spring bloom. The day began in the tower cabin where they were getting ready, and ended with a big dance party in the barn. There were more tear streaked faces and tissues in hand during the ceremony than I’ve ever witnessed. The heart and creative energy in this day made it a joy to capture.
